The workshop will take place on four Tuesday evenings from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. Registration is $120/person (dogs are free).

We're OPEN Tuesday, 12/9/25! Chris did his best Yukon Cornelius cosplay to get to the store this morning! If you're feeling a little stir crazy, drop by the store, say hey, and maybe treat yourself to a new book as a reward for dealing with snow and school closures in DECEMBER!
We are closing at 2 pm today because of the weather. We hope everyone is already at home curled up with a good book.
